Cat and Mouse
Every morning there is a mad moment when the Dust Bunny has a wild burst of activity, usually it involves one of the dining chairs and his favourite mouse.
It only lasts for a minute or two but it sounds like he is pulling down the house. I know it's about to begin when I see this face, the 'I am temporarily possessed by a wild demon' face.

Poor mouse is always oblivious to imminent attack even though it happens nearly every day. I suppose it's the result of having a brain filled with cotton wool.
The attack is vicious; kicking, biting, sharp teeth gnashing and gnawing mousie's tail.
Suddenly it stops. A sort of truce breaks out. Cat and mouse share a cuddle and a snooze, all aggression is forgotten.
But I can't help but think someone is making strategic plans for the next game of cat and mouse.
DB so reminds me of my old friend Emma. She arrived home as a kitten giveaway in my cycle pannier when I was 7 years old. And she kept me company all through my teenage years, college years and was still around when I left home. A very fine cat friend indeed and still missed for those very furry purrs:)
